Current location: The Dranosh’ar Blockade (outside Orgrimmar)
Issue summary
After conversion, Orgrimmar is stuck in an incorrect/empty phase (missing expected NPCs/quest starters). Current content works (I can play normally elsewhere), but Orgrimmar remains permanently in the wrong phase, which blocks normal gameplay and quest pickups.
What’s broken
I cannot start the Legion intro chain at all:
“Legion: The Legion Returns” never appears (not on any Command Board, not from NPCs).
Orgrimmar Warchief’s Command Board: no Legion option.
Holgar Stormaxe: no dialogue options / no quest.
Archivist Elysiana (Violet Tower, Dalaran) has a line to start/restart the Legion intro scenario, but clicking it does nothing (no popup, no scenario start, no quest added).
Eitrigg is present in Orgrimmar (but does not offer Fate of the Horde, etc.).
Quest log is empty (0 quests), but the starters still do not appear.
Checked other Command Boards (e.g., Silvermoon) → no Legion starter
Unstuck, death/rez, zone changes → no change
Party Sync:
Party Sync can temporarily change phasing, but even with Party Sync ON the Legion starter still does not appear on the Command Board or from questgivers.
Scenario/instance state checks:
C_Scenario.IsInScenario() = false
IsInInstance() = false
Quest flag evidence (inconsistent state)
I ran quest ID checks and got:
40518 (The Battle for Broken Shore): false
40522 (Fate of the Horde): false
40976 (Audience with the Warchief): true
Also these are all false:
40982 (Second Sight): false
40760 (Emissary): false
40593 (Demons Among Us): false
This looks like a corrupted Legion intro progression/phasing state (a mid-chain quest flagged completed while intro starters and scenario triggers are missing / non-functional).
You can re-do the Legion intro by going to Legion Dalaran, then visit Violet tower (where Khadgar and the councils are), turn to the left and there is this Archivist Elysiana - speak to her and re-do the intro. Don’t skip anything!
80 Blood Elf Demon Hunter23845 1d I HAVE SOLVED IT! Maybe a fluke maybe not, If you cannot get the Second Sight quest try this: Fly over to Bladefist Bay by the Dock, dismount, walk along the dock, remount, head to the front of Orgrimmar and the correct phasing should have initiated! Worked for me, let me know if it works for you too!
What’s happening is: that dock “movement trick” forces Orgrimmar to re-evaluate your intro-phase state, which makes the DH-only questgiver/trigger for Second Sight (40982) appear. Once you complete Second Sight, the Legion-intro phasing logic finally “catches up” and the rest of the chain becomes available normally.
Clear steps:
Go to Bladefist Bay (Orgrimmar docks)
Dismount → walk along the dock a few seconds → remount
Ride toward the front gate of Orgrimmar
This should re-phase Orgrimmar enough to make Second Sight available
Pick up Second Sight (40982) and complete it → it unlocks the remaining Legion intro chain (and Orgrimmar behavior returns to normal)
If you run your quest-flag check again after completing Second Sight, you should see 40982 = true, and the follow-up quests start appearing normally.
For me it worked afted I picked “Audience with the Warchief” from Khadgar, who is standing right at the end of the entrance of the Org.
He sends you to talk to Saurfang, who asks you to witness the Vol’jin extremely pathetic pick for a warchief. Then you get ported out and you can pick the Second Sight right away.
You go to Allari the Souleater, who is standing in front of Orgrimmar next to Sylvanas, and do the Second Sight quest. Then you accept Demons Among Them, and after completing it, you do A Weapon of the Horde, which you take to Orgrimmar. Problem solved (for me).
